everyone on here is such a goody - goody who pays all their taxes and is so politically correct. I lived in Atlantic city til I was 15 and there was so much stealing, lying , collusion going on in the poker room, but everyone on here seems so PC. just a thought.

Wrong forum.

What is this "poker" you speak of? I keep a poker next to my fireplace, but your post seems to be talking of some other form of "poker". [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I'm not sure everyone on here plays poker everyday. I play about 5 days a week but I think OOT is like a new creation on its own. The forum is genius in my opinion and I can't believe David and Matt Sklansky aren't working on OOT T-shirts, Hats, coffee mugs, and underwear as we speak.

I agree though, poker players are assholes. I still have emotional baggage from when I was a fish and this dude was taunting me at the table. If I ever see him again, I'm going to punch him in the face.

Do you play a poker like you play the spoons? or is it more of a wobble board sort (tie my kangaroo down sport for those of us who remember Rolf Harris) of instrument?

I guess since guitar players are generally up themselves, poker players are assholes for much the same reasons, whatever they are.

LMAO...If you have time to post this story at some point, I for one, would love to hear it.

OK now this is NV&G so I'll try to answer seriously, I think it's because most people here actually win at poker (certainly far more here do than a random group of people in a casino) so people don't have the need to cheat/steal/collude. Of course, it still happens.
